found everything good for what we needed,handy location in town center,close to tesco ,room simple but effective and clean.
Reception informative and friendly

Best hostel I've ever stayed at, without question. The staff was very kind and the security is organized without being too strict. My friend and I stayed in a private double room at a very low price and were very comfortable. A free towel for the shower was also a welcome amenity. If I am ever in the area again, I will definitely stay here.

Hi I have very good experience stay at neptunes hostel for a night. My bro booked previously for a female mixed dom for me but cos I had kneecap surgery done recently I can't climb up/down the stairs. The kind staff there made arrangement for a private suite for me without any top up charges. I'm deeply appreciative of their kind guesture.

First off all, we had a warm welcome by one of the staff members at the reception. Even though it looked busy at the time we arrived, he took his time to explain everything to us.
We booked a double room ensuite and the room was quiet, warm and everything was tidy and working.
The kitchen was extensive and you could always see people cooking their delicious food.
The breakfast was basic, cereals, milk, bread, butter and jam. At least that was what we could find.
We would come again.

The free breakfast featuring Fruit and Fibre cereal was much appreciated and there was no shortage of cool people to talk to during meal times. The toilet in my dorm was leaking during my first night there, but they got a plumber to fix it. It still leaked a bit but they were very prompt about addressing the issue. The six-person dorm room only had two electrical sockets, which proved problematic when we all wanted to charge our gadgets at night.

Neptunes staff was accommodating, the rooms were clean, the location was great. I think the only improvements would be lockers under the beds and perhaps individual lights for the bunks! Love it though.

The only criticisms I have with this hostel is that on two occasions the vending machine in reception vended unsweetened dishwater rather than sweetened hot chocolate. This showed to me the machine was not being serviced properly and to my mind as it was a franchise should not be there. Also, there were no dedicated lockers and this fact removed ones ability to store or retrieve valuables conveniently.
Otherwise it was excellent, so this was a pity.

Neptunes was such a lovely place, my favourite hostel that I've stayed in! The atmosphere was awesome, the location and services were great, and I felt totally safe and at home! The room was really clean and quiet and all the facilities were really great as well. Overall, LOVED it and will be recommending to everyone heading that way!

I stayed at different hostels already.
And Neptunes is not that good. My sheets were dirty and cleaning a bathroom shold take longer than 2 minutes (in my opinion!!). The WIFI at the reception didn`t work at all...and the staff wasn`t that great either...

was all fine but to be considered as a "party hostel" at least during weekends. It is noisy even though it is in a quite cul de sac. One more surprise was to find out it is not possible to come back in after 3am at night...
rooms were good and comfortable, toilets and kitchen not perfect.

The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the young man working the desk was very nice. He kindly set me up with a few girls who joined me on the Ring of Kerry drive and gave a great tips for where to eat and catch a soccer match. The atmosphere was lively and buzzing most of the time and always new people to meet hanging out.
